To further hammer home the point about the Good Example descended Deputy Minister and War Relic, we'll also note Deputy Minister has combined with War Relic's Travers Stakes Winning son Battlefield in the 5 Time GIW Silverbulletday, who was the 1998 Eclipse Champion 2YO Filly and 1999 Eclipse Champion 3YO Filly, and with War Relic's daughter En Casserole in the very fast G2W Badge of Silver. Deputy Minister has also combined with War Relic's daughter Ellen's Best (who was actually inbred 1x3 to War Relic and his full sister Speed Boat) in the Four Time G2 winner Flag Down, a quality earner of $1.7 Million who also finished 2nd in the Man O' War (GI), Early Times Turf Classic (GI), and Manhattan Handicap (GI) and 3rd in both the Jockey Club Gold Cup (GI) and BC Turf (GI).



(This comes to a grand total of 13 GIWs, 6 Multiple GIWs, and 4 American Champions crossing Deputy Minister on one side and War Relic on the other.)



Intriguingly, Good Example was bred to Shut Out to produce the next link in the Bellamy Road Chain (this incidentally being where it branches off from the Deputy Minister line): Exclusive, a Alfred G. Vanderbilt bred daughter of Shut Out who was 4x4 to Fair Play, 4x4 to Peter Pan, 4x5 to Rock Sand, and 4x5x5 to Fair Play's dam Fairy Gold (note that Fair Play, Rock Sand, and Fairy Gold are major building blocks of Man O' War and his previously mentioned son War Relic).



The reason in main for this breeding earning a description evincing strong interest on my part is that Exclusive's sire Shut Out was an equivalent to a filly of long ago named Weno: Shut Out being 2x3x4 to Broomstick, Hamburg, and Pennant; and Weno being 2x2x2 to Broomstick, Hamburg, and Pennant's full sister Cherokee Rose.



And of what relevance is this to that which has come before, you ask? Why, Weno was the granddam of War Relic's best son Intent! Thus Intent's sire War Relic was an equivalent to Exclusive's dam Good Example and his granddam Weno was an equivalent to Exclusive's sire Shut Out. A very excellent example of an intricate reverse can thus be seen in the relationship of Exclusive and Intent.



Here I should note that Shut Out and Weno's grandson Intent combined in the horse responsible for the continuation of the In Reality male line forward into present times: his best son Relaunch, as it tends to show the significance of the relationship between Weno and Shut Out.



But the parallels betwixt the Female Family of Bellamy Road and the Male Line of In Reality don't stop there; for Exclusive was bred to Native Dancer to produce Bellamy Road 's 6th dam Exclusive Dancer. This is significant as Native Dancer's dam Geisha was a filly sharing Discovery, Whisk Broom II, and Sweep with Intent's best son Intentionally, who became the sire of In Reality. Thus when we line up Exclusive Dancer and Intentionally we find a complex and intricate relationship involving three sets of overlapping equivalents: Good Example and War Relic, Shut Out and Weno, and Geisha and Intentionally himself.



If we pour it all together in a hodgepodge we find that Exclusive Dancer is 3x4x4x5x5x5x5x5x5x5x5x6x6 to Discovery, Display, Fair Play, Friar Rock, Whisk Broom II, Broomstick, Sweep, Peter Pan, Royal Rose, and Rock Sand.



And Intentionally is 2x4x4x4x4x5x5x5x5x6x6 to Discovery, Whisk Broom II, Fair Play, Friar Rock, Balancoire, Rock Sand, Hamburg , and Sweep.



As Intentionally was the Champion Sprinter of 1959 and a one-time world record holder for 8f (1:33.1), and Exclusive Dancer was a Miss Florida winner and good broodmare; we may say that this build-up/cluster of ancestors did alright by both of them and that combining the two in one pedigree would be desirable by my theories.



And combining them has proven successful in both Bellamy Road, who crosses them 4x6 through the female line of his dam and the male line of his sire Concerto's damsire, and a very nice little sprinting filly and earner of over $1.5 Million named Gold Mover, who is by Gold Fever (Bellamy Road's fellow descendant of Exclusive Native's granddaughter Arabian Dancer) and out of a mare by Intentionally's other son of significance besides In Reality: Tentam.
